Graham Souness

Did anyone watch Sky Sports after the rags game?

I switched it on after I got in from the match and they were talking about our game and Glenn Hoddle was making little excuses about them selling Bale and you could tell Souness was getting wound up, he then mentioned about Tottenham spending £100M on "strengthening" the squad then turned around and said (in a metaphorical sense) "If you were a supporter would you rather have a season ticket at City or Tottenham at them moment?" Hoddles face was priceless the guy looked fucking gutted!!

Souness is about the only person on Sky at the moment that talks out of his mouth rather then his arse!

Souness from what i have seen is pretty fair in what he says and someone whom to me at least to be pretty impartial.

Think rat biy also does a decent job

After these two i struggle

Those two, Alan Smith and squeeky Carragher are four decent pundits. Smith seems quite boring but what he says is usually spot on and he's actually quite a cool guy. Carragher's vocabulary needs some work, as does his high pitched "eerrmm"s but at least he isn't a monotone bore-fest like Dwight "says lots of words but actually says nowt insightful" York and the sad bitter Cockney arsehole Jamie Redknapp.

I remember his after match comments following the QPR game when we won the league. He kept having sly digs at Neville, he could hardly contain his glee. I reckon he is a closet blue ;)

When we won the league Neville said something like "you'll hear words like dynasty, dominance, power shift..." then Souness cut him off and said something like "all the words you don't want to hear" with a big smirk on his face!

His wife's a City fan, I remember him saying it a few years ago.

I'm not so sure because it was all over the papers prior to the promotion game in 2000 as every paper was saying they'd go easy on City as his wife would have a word being a City fan herself. He came out in the pre match build up and said his father in law is a STH at City but his wife was a red. Maybe she's seen the light since!!

Top pundit. No edge to him.

Him and Neville are the best two pundits on the box, by a mile. Compare them to the gobshites on Soccer Saturday or MOTD or any of ITV's ''experts.

I remember him saying his father-in-law was a City fan but I thought I'd read somewhere so was his wife unless that was a mistake. Either way he must get some earache from his father-in-law at least on the City side of things so maybe he gets it pointed out to him and can now see some of the bias against us.

Got to echo previous posters.

Souness is spot on. Always pleased to see him in the studio. He called it right with Tevez in Munich that time too even when Hughes was trying to make excuses for him in the studio. A man of integrity.

Geezer.

Cant understand a fucking thing Carragher says - needs subtitles to be honest all i hear is that high pitched whining scouse accent drives me fucking mad
